Support Melissa and Ash in Their Housing Crisis

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Melissa and my son and I are in a bit of a pickle... This pickle is in the shape of a housing crisis. Sadly, our landlady's mother passed away, leaving the state an open door to seize the house we are living in to cover her final medical costs. There is an impending sheriff's sale, and we need to vacate. SOON!

Unfortunately, we do not have the funds needed to secure a new home. Between security deposits, pet deposits, first and last month's rents, and moving costs for rented vehicles and travel costs, buying lunch for anyone who helps us move, etc., this is a BIG pickle. We are looking at $2000-$3000 JUST to cover the deposits and then the additional moving costs on top of that.

While there are local agencies who could help with these costs, some of the apartments/homes willing to work with us are outside of the coverage area... so the pickle grows.

I guess that's why we are here. We simply don't have the time to save up that much cash... so, we are asking for help. Which is something that anyone who knows me is something that I truly struggle with.

Any little bit will help, even if you just help us spread the word.
Thank you so much!
Melissa & Ash and our fur babies Kira and Milkshake
